Removing Fuzz Balls from a Sweatshirt |
|
|
I have a fleece hooded sweatshirt that has grown little white fuzzballs on its beautiful dark blue body. I have tried duct tape to remove them and washing the sweatshirt inside out. The fuzzballs refuse to relocate!
Please help. FFL from Denver

I found a tool that you brush across the sweater (like a constant, twirling cheese grader) that removes the balls real easily! They're at Target!

Try the type of lint brush that has a red end on it. It doesn't look like it will do much but it works great!! You can get it mostly anywhere but here is a link for it at Walgreens so you can see a picture of it...
Hopefully this link will work http://www.walgreens.com/store/product.jsp?CATID=100760&id=prod3943

I agree with all of the previous poster's ideas. Also be sure to avoid putting clothes you really care about in the dryer. They will last longer. I also found what is called a clothing stone. This is effective in getting pills off of hearty material, but would not work for delicate fabrics. You can get a clothing stone at The Container Store if you have one in your area.

Next time - wash with dark clothes and check all pockets! Now the time comsuming part, take a disposable razor (used one okay too) and GENTLY shave the sweater, small areas at a time. Helps if you have a clothing shaver, but if not, use the above. Also, turn your clothes inside out, zippers & buttons up & buttoned before washing.
